It was  called the "Le Car" here. Wasn't sold here as long as there though... 
only  late 70's thru early 80's.

I won't go into all the issues I had with  mine (my first and likely last 
French auto), but the seats were indeed  comfy!

Renault played by the "rules". If you want to sell a car in France, the  
seats must be comfortable. If you want to sell in Germany, it must be fast - or  
at least built well enough to run as fast as it can go - all day long! German  
cars haven't always sold very well in France, hard seats - maybe a few other  
reasons dating back 60 years as well. Most American cars from the 60s -  Bench 
seats - Can't sell in France - Most would not run at top speed for long -  
without overheating something. Can't sell in Germany. -  Seth
